Finally the wait is over,one of the biggest movie of the year was in front of audience. Arambam is not a usual Tamil flick, but the story board of the movie doesn’t offers anything new.The presentation and technical side of the movie makes Aarrambam a different experience.
The director, Vishnuvardhan is succeeded to made his film as a mass one by powerful action sequences and dialogues, but he fails in utilizing an actor such as Ajith.
The first half of the movie was above average and the cool performance of Arya made engaging were as the second half was little bit dragging and predictable.The climax was good.
Performance wise Ajith was cool as Ashok. Even his simple smile, expressions makes huge response among audience. Arya has done a neat performance again. Ajith-Arya combo scenes was engaging.
Overall, Arambam has enough in it to be enjoyed in this festive season.Their is no need for searching for logic in this type of commercial movies.
My Rating: 3.5/5
Verdict: Nothing less than a superhit.
Movements against Corruption,were never an extraordinary concept,and it never will be. Mohanlal's new flick LOKPAL, is one such anti-corruption targeted flick that picks up pace based on light hearted humor,concept and dialogues.. Mohanlal makes his presence felt as LOKPAL,a fictitious character out of the blue,making his presence felt in the hearts and minds of all who want corruption evaded,an who has an alter side,to his daylight activities. Sai Kumar is a really humorous character who has done well indeed.
The supporting cast includes Meera Nandan,who has a keen role alongside Lal and his motive.Manoj K Jayan is once more at his bad ass role,and makes it victorious. Kavya Madhavan is just one pace of a star who comes in n walks out..her role is nothing much worth the limelight.On the bright side,you get to watch the humorous feeds of corrupt people and their money being targted by Lal in his various disguises,and on the other hand,its another courtroom brawl....
Its a one edge seater,which can be enjoyed once.LOKPAL,is Joshiy's next statement to his twisted sense of direction.
Good Watch,for LAL and his team..

Karthi's last movie Saguni had failed to impress the audience. Now, the actor has teamed up with Suraj, who has the history of making mass-masala films and delivering hits. The director, in an interview recently, has claimed that his latest film Alex Pandian with the Paruthiveeran star is a perfect Pongal treat for Tamil audience since it's an action-comedy film.
Expectations: Tamil movie audience in recent years have been expecting good storyline and do not entertain mindless scenes, comedies and regular masala tales anymore. They look for believable factors and do not appreciate the same old routine sequences or glorifying the heroism of a lead star unnecessarily. Well, the latest film, with its trailers and posters, appeared like a regular mass film but generated huge hype because of high-octane action sequences.
Story: It has a stunning beginning with a much-talked train chase sequence. A group of thugs chase Anushka Shetty and Karthi comes to rescue her and bashes them up. The first 10 minutes is thrilling and the action sequence have been brilliantly shot, despite the fact that the audience can easily make out that the scenes have been choreographed on a still train at parts. Immediately after the sequence, we are introduced to comedian Santhanam's family, which consists of his mother and three younger sisters. Alex Pandian settles down at his house in spite of stern opposition from Santhanam. The hero flirts with all his three sisters played by Nikita Thukral, Sanusha, and Akanksha Puri. The first half is full of comedy and a few fights.
Light on Alex Pandian Alex Pandian is a typical masala film, which would work better in the Telugu market than among Tamil film goers. To be precise, it is a time-pass movie that can be watched for comedy and action sequences.

Review :
The movie will be a comeback for Mega Star Mammootty ... Bavoottiyude Namathil is a simple movie with a simple story and Mammootty acted simply in this film. Bavoottiyude Namathil is a comedy + family entertainer, first half is full of comedy, Mammootty & co actors did it well, while the second half has twisted and the movie become serious thereafter. Climax of the film is taken well by Ranjith.
Good :
Mammootty did the comedy & serious roles very well in this film, there is something in this film for the fans cheer up.
Kavya Madhavan, Kaniha, Sankar all give their valuable contributions to the good result of this film.
Direction is excellent.
Excllent Dialogues
Verdict :
Must Watch Family Entertainer.

Story:
A Teenage girl was kidnapped in Mumbai, and Police officer Madhavan, known as Mad Maddy(Mohanlal) cames to investigate this. Mad Maddy is a brutal encounter office and he belive in 'punish on the spot'. Maddy investigates the missing case in his own style. As investigation progresses maddy reaches Kerala and there was also reported another Man Missing case in same pattern, A school girl was cheatted and kidnapped by sex racket. The Girl's Brothers and Maddy together investigates it.
No need to say about the performence of Lalettan, as we all know, He is brilliant brutal in his role. His cold blood brutal act really fear us. Mohanlal's flexibility in fight scenes is also notable.
Major Ravi didn't know casting, the supporting actors except Sai Kumar are exactly failed. Sai Kumar done his role very well with out make boaring. Bineesh Kodiyeri and his company was boared, Villain Murali Sharma is best in his psycho role. The Charector Diya was also done well.
A Social relevant theme gives an extra energy to the movie Film begins with Mohanlal's intro, which make a festival mood in theater. First half start with very little lagging but it end with maximum fast pace and a good interval punch. Second half has the maximum speed and better than first half. Climax is good but it can make even better. The BGM and cinematography are above avarage, Editing is Good. The title song by Murukan Kaattakada is apt to film. Direction is just Avarage
Positives:
-Mohanlal, Best in his brutal role.
-Sai Kumar and Murali Sharma.
-Social Relevant Theme, Serves a good message.
-Songs
-Nothing to Boar
Negatives:
-Poor Supporting Cast
-Script can make better.
-Avarage Direction
Verdict* A Good Film, Above Avarge. Mohanlal's brilliant performence and good theme.

The underlying theme of 'I Love Me' is how Ram Mohan (Anoop Menon) changed the perception of three individuals who are self-centric. Ram Mohan is a business magnet in Bangkok. He acquaints Savio (Unni Mukundan) and Prem (Asif Ali) at Kochi.
Savio strongly loves money and lives for it. The only person he loves other than himself is his mother. Prem also dedicates his life to acquire more and more money. The only difference between them is that they both use different ways to get money. Ram Mohan very cunningly influences them and thus the three are at Bangkok.
At Bangkok they come across a Malayalee girl Samanthika (Isha Talwar). They both started loving her. It is during this time that they come to realize certain truths about themselves.
Unnikrishnan presents the movie in a very intriguing and entertaining manner. The movie explores certain novel phases of friendship.
This is a multi star film with Anoop Menon, Unni Mukundan, and Asif Ali as heroes and Isha Talwar the unrivalled beauty in 'Thattathin Marayathu' as the heroine. Along with Vijayaraghavan and Vanitha, a foreign star is also cast in this movie.
B Unnikrishnan is trying to do different films, but this time he failed to deliver a good suspense thriller. Sethu's script contains lots of unwanted twists which makes the audience bluff. Some dialogues are not at all suitable for the characters in such a film which makes it cheap. The plus points are its stylish execution like a bollywood film and its background music by Deepak Dev. Anoop menon was great. Isha Talwar was beautiful, but the voice given to her was not at all suitable with her body language. On the whole, I LOVE ME is just a time-pass entertainer for watching the beauty of bangkok.
Vaishak Rajan produces the film under the banner of Vaishak Cinema. The story of the youth, their emotions and thoughts are depicted using limited number of characters. The screenplay is by Sethu. Deepak Dev tunes music for the lines of Hari Narayanan.
Rating:2.5/5
Akshay Kumar’s oft-repeated line in Khiladi 786 pretty much sums up the film. If you enjoy loud, over-the-top entertainers that defy both logic and gravity, in which the hero delivers dialogues and punches with equal ease, and the heroine doesn’t have much to do, you should be watching this movie. But if youare shuddering already, this one is not for you.
Khiladi 786 is the kind of movie that critics pan and audiences lap up. Bahattar (72) Singh (yes, that is really Akshay’s name in the film) beats villains black and blue and makes walls crumble with just a single punch! What he can’t do is find himself a bridebecause of his reputation. When an out-of-work matrimonial agent (Himesh) offers to get him hitched to Indu (Asin), the spoilt sister ofan underworld don Tatya Tendulkar (Mithun), both families pretend to come from respectable backgrounds. What ensues is as unbelievable as Akshay lip-syncing to Himesh’s songs.
In his patiala salwars , colourful kurtas and ornate mojris , Akshay looks every bit the Punjabi munda about totie the knot. Asin is the same girl she has been playing in allher films while Himesh displaysa flair for comedy.
Watch it only if you are a fan of mindless masala movies
The Legend Yash Chopra left this world leaving a movie with intense feelings of love. Yes, JAB TAK HAI JAAN, indeed a YASH CHOPRA ROMANCE. A R Rahman, as usual, did wonder with music and background score. Cinematography (by Anil Mehta) and Choreography (by Vaibhavi Merchant) are at its peak. Screenplay (Aditya Chopra) could have been much tighter by avoiding some over-dramatic scenes and the movie is lagging at times. Shahrukh Khan, Katrina Kaif and Anushka sharma made the film great with their splendid performance. On the whole, Jab Tak Hai Jaan, is a dream world of romance. Those who love romantic movies, just go and experience it.

My boss, the film which stars the Janapriyanayakan Dileep in the lead role, neither falls in to the category of"Mayamohini", nor "Mummy and Me". The film has two lead characters with entirely different tastes and tells the story with an IT background. The director Jithu Joseph who has done "Mummy and me" previously has come up with a different story treated in a different manner.Manu Varma (Dileep) is a young IT professional who does like the life in a foreign country. He used to talk about his intentions of migrating to a foreign country to his friends and dear ones. He was appointed as the assistant to Priya (Mamtha) in Mumbai. The boss contrary to Dileep, is a young women who was brought up in Australia and always dreams of leading a normal life here. And one must say that she is arrogant too. So, as one can expect some usual Boss – Subordinate fight between them. Unfortunately, some Visa Problems made her situations worse. She was forced to migrate to Australia. Under these circumstances she took some bold decisions. She asks Dileep whether he could act as her husband. Though shows some hesitations at first, he agrees to marry her. Both of them move to kerala, to meet Manu Varma's parents. But, contrary to her believes, she starts loving the people out there. Then there follows some usual comic situations and with some predictable twists and turnings, the story proceeds.
The main highlight of the movie is none another than the presence of Dileep. As a young IT professional, with a slight tint of humor he steels most part of show. Some of the situations don't suit to your logic, but you would love to watch it in most parts. Mamtha as the arrogant and tough Boss did justice to her given role. She looked convincing in the role. But, one need note that, this is far from the Mamtha that we have seen in Kadha Thudarunnu or Arike. The rest of the cast too needs some mention. Mukesh in an extended cameo role as the boss of Mamtha and Sai Kumar as Dileep's father too excels.Jithu Joseph, who is the maker of Mummy and Me, has dealt with a much softer theme this time. Though this one is not like his previous flick, it has its own moments. What makes us happy by seeing this film is that, unlike Dileep's previous films this movie has a decent story to tell. The director himself has written the script and except some lagging in the second half, it can be considered as a decent film. Thus Jithu Joseph needs special applause. The songs by Seijo John and M.Jayachandran are good to hear, so is the cinematograph by Anil Nair. The special addition of the song "Enthinennariyilla" was nice. Editor V.Sajan could have trimmed the content at least in some portions."My Boss" definitely offers some hilarious moments and keeps you engaged throughout. On the whole, this movie tells a story that we have heard somewhere. But the movie offers some excellent performances by Dileep & co, and a neat job by the director.
M Mohanan’s 916 is a movie that fails to take off to a new level of storytelling. The makers can claim that the story is relevant in the new society and all. But the simplicity or rather silliness and the repeated theme make this movie not so special. We have seen many movies based on divorce and how it influences the children in a family. Mohanan tries to repeat the same theme on the current society but unfortunately he is stuck on the old generation.The plot is basically about a dad and his daughter. Doctor Harikrishnan and his daughter Meera. As Meera grows Harikrishnan’s worries also increases as a normal dad. He spots her with a boy and his tension increases and it results in a situation where he slaps and she leaves her father. When he tries to find her, he understands that she is with her mother and then the movie revolves around this family’s emotional backdrop.
The basic problem with the movie is that its level of social commitment is almost in a preaching level which will be a really boring experience when compared to the level of narration of modern day movies. The theme doesn’t have any freshness and the only plus I found in the movie was the ease in performance of the actors especially Anoop Menon. Otherwise it’s a cliché melodramatic Malayalam movie.On screen, Anoop Menon again impresses us with his Calicut slang and the ease with which he naturally emotes is simply superb. Malavika had some hiccups in the emotional scenes. But in the combination scenes with Anoop Menon she was really impressive as a new comer. KPSC Lalitha’s character just vanished into air after a few minutes. Asif Ali’s role actually has no big importance compared to his star value and a younger face would have been more apt for the role. After a while Asif is also missing from the film. Monica was good in both shades. Mukesh and Meera Vasudev did their part impressively along with Nandu. In the making, I think in the practical scenes Mohanan had his grip over the script and with Anoop Menon portraying the role neatly the movie went smoothly in those areas. First time I felt Asif as impressive in dialog delivery in this movie. The portion were he describes about his mother was really good especially because of the positive energy he brought on screen. The flirting boy in Meera’s school was an annoying addition. Back to back songs were also quite disturbing. The melodrama surrounding the divorce of the main protagonists was also quite stretched out and movie totally leaves its pleasant atmosphere. Faisal Ali’s cinematography was nice. But still he couldn’t bring that charm of Ordinary. M Jayachandran’s music was good. Overall, 916 is a cliché Melodramatic family drama which offers very few for the audience to rethink. Preaching movies are just not what the doctor ordered. I am giving 2/5 for this one from Mr Mohanan. Watch it only for Anoop Menon.
